   • Create a new app or select an existing one

   • Get the Client ID and Client Secret from the app's keys section

   • Add http://localhost:8000/callback to the app's Redirect URIs

Authentication

There are two ways to authenticate with QuickBooks Online:

Option 1: Using Environment Variables

If you already have a refresh token and realm ID, you can add them directly to your .env file:

Option 2: Using the OAuth Flow

If you don't have a refresh token, you can use the built-in OAuth flow:

This will:

• Start a temporary local server

• Open your default browser automatically

• Redirect you to QuickBooks for authentication

• Save the tokens to your .env file once authenticated

• Close automatically when complete

Error Handling
